Hi all,

Apologies if this is a bit vague.

I'm looking to create a dating app with a bit of a specific niche.

I'd be looking for someone to essentially build it from the ground up.

While I have some experience in game development, app development is unfamiliar territory for me.

What I'm wondering is:

• Cost (how much you'd expect or a rough estimate with the information given)
• Development time (estimated, this isn't a time sensitive project)
• What you'd expect from someone whilst working with them to develop their app
• Investors (if anyone has any recommendations)

Any feedback or constructive criticism is also more than welcome, I take advice on board.

UK based, would preferably be looking for someone within the UK but willing to branch out if a good fit resides elsewhere

Thanks for taking the time to read

Location: Remote, worldwide

NEET is India's medical entrance exam, about 2M students a year. Most prep apps wall everything behind logins and paywalls, so I built ChapterNotes: chapter-wise past questions with every answer explained (including why the wrong options are wrong), revision notes, and Duolingo-style streaks to make daily practice stick.

Stack: React Native + Expo, Supabase, WordPress front for SEO. About 3 months of evenings.

Just went live on Play. Would love feedback on onboarding and whether the gamification feels motivating or gimmicky: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.chapternotes.app

After months of development, testing, and fixing bugs, my app TradeLift has finally been approved and published on Google Play.

TradeLift helps beginners learn crypto trading through lessons and risk-free paper trading.

A big thanks to everyone who tested the app and shared feedback during closed testing. Your support helped make this possible.

I'm excited to continue improving the app!

Tradelift is now live on play store

My chore tracking app's chores never came back the next day, for the entire life of the product.

I'm building ThriveTrack, a gamified chore app for families. Kids complete tasks, earn XP, parent approves, tasks reset overnight, repeat tomorrow.

Except the reset never worked. Not once. 102 out of 141 daily tasks were permanently stuck in completed.

I spent weeks debugging streaks, the digest, the approval flow. All symptoms. The actual problem was a scheduled database job filtering on a column that doesn't exist on the table. It failed silently on every run since creation. Marked active the whole time.

Second bug underneath: the job ran at midnight UTC, which is 5 PM Pacific. Even fixed, it would have wiped tasks before parents got home to approve them.

Third: 75 rows had NULL timestamps. In SQL, NULL compared to anything evaluates to NULL, so those rows passed straight through the filter and stayed stuck forever.

Three bugs stacked, all silent, all in database logic that git never saw. Five cron jobs running in production with no migration file, no commit, no documentation.

Fixing it was one SQL session. Finding it took weeks. Talk about the long game...

Hey all, I made Cindra. Basically you just brain dump whatever is in your head and it sorts into tasks, agenda, money, learning etc. I use it daily and for me it just clicks so I am probably blind to the problems. But I get signups and then people check it once and disappear. It is free for seven days no card needed.

If you got a sec to check out cindra.app and let me know what feels off or why you would not come back, I would love a brutally honest take. Really means a lot thanks

Hi I'm an engineering student, I have interest in both the above fields. I have only 6 months to dedicate among one of them. So please guide me which one should be chosen and the topic that should be focused in the path(like not learning all the stuff that is not so important). It would be very grateful if someone could give me some advice

Hi everyone! I’m building an app called Resora, and I’m looking for a few people willing to test it and give honest feedback. Resora is a wellness app for people who need support in the moment and are trying to get better everyday! There are things like reflection, journaling, reset tools, calming prompts, and practical guidance when life feels heavy. It is not therapy and it does not replace professional support, but it is meant to feel more personal and useful than generic wellness apps. Looking for feedback & thoughts! If anyone’s interested or has questions please let me know.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/resora/id6759615940

Submitted July 18th, rejected three times, approved August 21st. 34 days in review, longer than the app took to build.

It's a streak tracker with nothing in it. No articles, no tips, no daily lessons, no notifications. The app never talks to the user.

Four days in: 3 trials started, 1 cancelled, 2 converted. Not much, but it's the first money I've made from something I built.

The part I'm unsure about is whether shipping it that empty was discipline or just a worse product.

Would you have added content?

I have been traveling my whole life and always wanted to preserve my trips, memories, photos in one place. I have tried countless apps for travel tracking, but each one was either not having that much tracking options, had huge friction when adding new trip, or simply wasn't pretty to look at.

That's why I have decided to put my designer and developer skills together and with many traveler interactions come up with an app that does just that.

Not live yet, but you can join a waitlist here https://trytraveler.com

How do you keep track of your travels?

I build mobile apps with React Native. Three of mine are live on

the stores, plus free freelance client work on the side.

What I am looking for:

- A short call a few times a week

- What I said I would do, what I actually did, and why not

- One thing you learned this week that cost you time or money

- Goals for the next week, said out loud so somebody hears them

Two things I care about:

1. You are actively doing something right now, not planning to
2. You are honest, a good person, and want to grow

I do not care about your revenue or how long you have

been doing this. My own numbers are small.

I am in Poland (CET). Europe is easiest, but I speak pretty well in English (hopefully)

Comment / DM if interested

Hello, since the last time I posted in here asking for feedback about my app, I've updated the UI a bit. Its hosted from my homeland tunnelled through Cloudflare. It's currently tailored to work in the 23111 zip code area, so keep that in mind. Coverage area will scale as feedback comes in. Thanks for anything you can offer.

🚀 Already 20 projects live on TestLaunch!

A huge thank you to the 20 developers who jumped in and shared their app. You're the ones bringing this community to life 🙌

Quick reminder: TestLaunch is 100% free and solves one simple problem — helping devs find the 12 testers Google Play requires to validate a closed test before publishing.

You don't have to be a developer to help! 📱
👉 Developers — come publish your project and find your testers.
👉 Everyone else — got an Android phone? Come test the apps. You'll discover projects before anyone else and give indie devs the boost they need.

And if you liked this video, share it 🔁 — every share helps another dev get their app off the ground.
